It seeks to clarify (but not replace) information on our website and our published prospectus. It also addresses some common questions that have been raised with us during recent admissions cycles.  \nThe Schools of Medicine, Dentistry, and Veterinary Medicine, administer their own admissions and these are excluded from this document.  \nThis paper sets out the Admissions Policy and Process for applicants who are applying with SQA qualifications (Highers and Advanced Highers but not HNC/HND qualifications) . It is recognised that some schools in Scotland are now presenting applicants with A Levels, International Baccalaureate (IB), or a combination of A Level, IB and SQA qualifications. As SQA Highers and Advanced Highers represent the vast majority of applications from Scottish Schools, and as the Scottish system is unique in allowing students to apply to university from S5 and S6, this paper deals uniquely with the SQA qualifications.  \nWhilst all readers are encouraged to review the entire paper, the following is a summary of key changes to our Entry Requirements/Policy in 2018:  \nKEY CHANGES FROM 2017 ADMISSIONS POLICY  \n• ECONOMICS  \n• Entry to Economics in 2018 requires all applicants to have a minimum of Grade B in National 5 Mathematics.  \n• PSYCHOLOGY  \nPsychology Entry Requirements have increased to AAAAA or AAAABB for entry from S5 . Applicants who achieve AAAAB, AAAA or AAABB in S5 WILL receive a Conditional Offer based on them achieving a minimum of 2 Advanced Highers at Grade B or above in S6 . In cases where applicants attend a school which does not offer relevant Advanced Highers alternative offers (requiring a minimum of 3 additional Highers) will be considered.  \n• ENGINEERING  \nApplicants to Engineering Degrees who are applying for entry after S6 are now required to have 2 Advanced Highers:  \nM.Eng Degree: S5 Entry Requirements remain the same as 2017 at AAAAA. Applicants who achieve AAAA or AAABB including Mathematics in S5 WILL receive an S6 conditional offer based on them achieving AAAAAA cumulatively by the end of S6 including Grades A and B in 2 relevant Advanced Highers. If a school does not offer Advanced Highers alternative offers will be considered which require a minimum of three Highers.  \nB.Eng Degree: S5 Entry Requirements remain the same as 2017 at AAAA or AAABB. The minimum S5 requirement to be considered for an S6 offer has increased from ABBB to AABB. Applicants who achieve between AABB and AAAA/AAABB MAY receive a conditional offer. Conditional offers will require students to achieve AAAAAB cumulatively by the end of S6 including a minimum of Grade BB in 2 relevant Advanced Highers (where schools do not offer Advanced Highers alternative offers requiring 3 Highers will be considered) .  \nProduct Design Engineering (PDE): This degree programme is run in conjunction with the Glasgow School of Art (see prospectus for more details as to course content) . There are no specific changes to the academic Entry Requirements for 2018 entry (other than those noted above for all B. Eng and M. Eng degrees), however, due to the very limited number of places on this programme applications will be filtered based on Non-Academic Entry Requirements (content of the Personal Statement and School/College Reference – see section on Non-Academic Entry Requirements within this paper)  \n• PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY  \nApplicants to Physics or Astronomy (or any degree combination which includes either Physics or Astronomy) require applicants to have Mathematics and Physics Highersat Grades A/B or B/A.
